Three dimensional modelling of heat and mass transfer in desiccant regenerator.

Summary

A three-dimensional model is presented for simulating the combined heat and mass transfer processes in a hygroscopic thermal wheel. The model is based on the conservation equations of mass for the dry matrix, the dry air, the water vapour and the liquid water, and on the conservation equations of energy for the moist air and the wetted matrix. A test case is used as a first validation of the model.
